What we couldn't confirm4
- The closed-app descriptions list was empty, so the fit ratings rely only on the README and the list names.
- Whether SiYuan's team or wiki features match Notion's is not stated in the README.
- Which features are paid-only is not listed in the material given; the README points to a pricing page.
- The AGPL-3.0 license was taken from the host and no license file was provided to confirm it.
